Recent advances in corrosion resistant superhydrophobic coatings
(
Walter de Gruyter GmbH
, 2018 , Article Review)
Extreme water-repellent (superhydrophobic) coatings with water contact angle higher than 150° have caught the attention of corrosion researchers in the last decade as they can be used to protect metals and alloys against ...
Methane as a Substrate for Energy Generation Using Microbial Fuel Cells
(
Springer
, 2019 , Article Review)
Methane (CH 4 ) is a well-known and abundant feedstock for natural gas, and is readily available from various sources. In thermal plants, the CH 4 generated from anthropogenic sources is converted into electrical energy ...
Energy efficiency of direct contact membrane distillation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article Review)
Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technology due to its ability to function using low temperature differences and low-quality heat sources, thus allowing it to operate on solar or waste heat. The flux and energy ...
